And they despoiled the Egyptians.,And he called for Moses and Aaron by night and said: ‘Rise up, get you forth from among my people, both ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve the LORD, as ye have said.,For I will go through the land of Egypt in that night, and will smite all the first-born in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am the LORD.,Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them: ‘Draw out, and take you lambs according to your families, and kill the passover lamb.,and if the household be too little for a lamb, then shall he and his neighbour next unto his house take one according to the number of the souls; according to every man’s eating ye shall make your count for the lamb.,And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you: What mean ye by this service?,A sojourner and a hired servant shall not eat thereof.,It was a night of watching unto the LORD for bringing them out from the land of Egypt; this same night is a night of watching unto the LORD for all the children of Israel throughout their generations.,And the LORD spoke unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying:,Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year; ye shall take it from the sheep, or from the goats;,And it came to pass at the end of four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the host of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt.,’This month shall be unto you the beginning of months; it shall be the first month of the year to you.,For the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when He seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side-posts, the LORD will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.,And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, beside children.,And it came to pass at midnight, that the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the first-born of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the first-born of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the first-born of cattle.,In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not carry forth aught of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break a bone thereof.,And in the first day there shall be to you a holy convocation, and in the seventh day a holy convocation; no manner of work shall be done in them, save that which every man must eat, that only may be done by you.,And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the passover to the LORD, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land; but no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.,And it came to pass the selfsame day that the LORD did bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their hosts." |

Leaping up, he stood, and began to walk. He entered with them into the temple, walking, leaping, and praising God. 5.1. But a certain man named Aias, with Sapphira, his wife, sold a possession, 5.2. and kept back part of the price, his wife also being aware of it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet. 5.3. But Peter said, "Aias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back part of the price of the land? 5.4. While you kept it, didn't it remain your own? After it was sold, wasn't it in your power? How is it that you have conceived this thing in your heart? You haven't lied to men, but to God." 5.5. Aias, hearing these words, fell down and died. Great fear came on all who heard these things. 5.6. The young men arose and wrapped him up, and they carried him out and buried him. 5.7. About three hours later, his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in. 5.8. Peter answered her, "Tell me whether you sold the land for so much."She said, "Yes, for so much." 5.9. But Peter asked her, "How is it that you have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out." 5.10. She fell down immediately at his feet, and died. The young men came in and found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her by her husband. 5.11. Great fear came on the whole assembly, and on all who heard these things. 5.12. By the hands of the apostles many signs and wonders were done among the people. They were all with one accord in Solomon's porch. 5.13. None of the rest dared to join them, however the people honored them. 5.14. More believers were added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women. 5.15. They even carried out the sick into the streets, and laid them on cots and mattresses, so that as Peter came by, at the least his shadow might overshadow some of them. |

Most assuredly I tell you, they have received their reward. , But when you do merciful deeds, don't let your left hand know what your right hand does, , so that your merciful deeds may be in secret, then your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. , "When you pray, you shall not be as the hypocrites, for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Most assuredly, I tell you, they have received their reward. , But you, when you pray, enter into your inner chamber, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. , In praying, don't use vain repetitions, as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking. , Therefore don't be like them, for your Father knows what things you need, before you ask him. , Pray like this: 'Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. , Let your kingdom come. Let your will be done, as in heaven, so on earth. , Give us today our daily bread. , Forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors. , Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. Amen.' , "For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. , But if you don't forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. , "Moreover when you fast, don't be like the hypocrites, with sad faces. For they disfigure their faces, that they may be seen by men to be fasting. Most assuredly I tell you, they have received their reward. , But you, when you fast, anoint your head, and wash your face; , so that you are not seen by men to be fasting, but by your Father who is in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you. , "Don't lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal; , but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume, and where thieves don't break through and steal; , for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. , "The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is sound, your whole body will be full of light. , But if your eye is evil, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness! , "No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You can't serve both God and Mammon. , Therefore, I tell you, don't be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn't life more than food, and the body more than clothing? , See the birds of the sky, that they don't sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren't you of much more value than they? , "Which of you, by being anxious, can add one cubit to the measure of his life? , Why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don't toil, neither do they spin, , yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these. , But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, won't he much more clothe you, you of little faith? , "Therefore don't be anxious, saying, 'What will we eat?', 'What will we drink?' or, 'With what will we be clothed?' , For the Gentiles seek after all these things, for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. , But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. , Therefore don't be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day's own evil is sufficient. |
